2010 Ahb Sydney Pub Crawl

[redbeard]

Fatz

We have around 20 Canberra Brewers making our way up. I will give you a buzz when we have finished our brewery tours and start our pub crawl.

How did you get an invite to Lion Nathan ?

You having a seperate crawl to us New South Welshmen ?

:lol:

 

[dgilks]

Us Canberrans are only leaving Canberra on Saturday morning so plan on hitting up a couple of breweries for tours before starting the crawl. No doubt we will find you guys at some stage but we are starting so much later and wanted to hit up a few of the places you will have already done.

The canberra boys have two tours including Lord Nelson in the arvo plus staying O/N - I reckon we'll may intersect with them somewhere mid to late afternoon if lucky. We'll be on our first beers before they leave the ACT. They'll be drink long after some of us have hit slumberland.

redbeard .....You having a seperate crawl to us New South Welshmen ?

The Canberra Brewers have a few New South Welshmen as members, thank you very much ! It just that I committed myself to the AHB pub crawl before the CBC picked their day and Dicko et al put together a great tour. ! Either way, both groups will have a mighty time.

 

[redbeard]

Scotty

You doing anything about your half pint glasses Scotty?

Left most of a White Rabbit on the floor last time I was in. The barman said it was far from the first time the bottom had dropped straight off the glass.

 

[Barry]

Please Scotty can I have a glass glass? I am old and a bit less trouble?

 

[Dicko ACT]

Scotty

No need Scotty, we have a plethora of category-winning glasses from last years AABC.

 

[Korev]

[GTS350]

Anyone getting the train in from Campbelltown? Let me know time and carriage and I'll join you fellas at Leumeah.

What time do we start again,
Matti

+1 for Macarthur transport options,
as long as we catch a 9am (or earlier) train, we'd be in-town for an official kick off prior to 11am (not including the 2litre travellers' in the backpack).

BTW any 'expert' decisions on the starting grounds ? who's gonna step up and take command?

[Pollux]

Do we need to make a long list of all those attending?

 

[Fatgodzilla]

Do we need to make a long list of all those attending?

No, but its useful to know who is coming along when so we can
1. Let no one drink alone
2. work out what time most people think they will arrive.
3. Food is available at the Lowenbrau, who is up for german sausage for breakfast?

Assuming (since no one has argued against it yet) that we are doing the Lowenbrau, The Lord Nelson then Harts for lunch, it will allow late comers to meet us at the appropriate destination. After Harts, The Belgian Cafe then ........... wherever.

Or has anyone any better ideas?
